Olympian1010 7,578 Posted September 16, 2018 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I saw that Afghanistan has a surfer there, I really hope he finds a way to qualify for the Olympics.

What a story that would be! There aren't any universality or tripartite commision places, so he really needs to be quite good in order to get the olympic spot. I am unashamed, at getting nothing done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDOG 2,221 Posted September 19, 2018 #5 Share Posted September 19, 2018 This competition isn't really important, right? Congrats to Santiago anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, If I'm not wrong, this is the most important competition at the amateur level. Good result for your competitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szy123 79 Posted September 19, 2018 #8 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Next year it will be a qualifier for Olympics afaik. It is considered world championships though. And Igarashi is a solid surfer from World Surf League. I am not sure, but as I remember ISA will allow at olympics only surfers who started at World Surfing Games.

Congrats to Santiago anyway. actually this is the most important competition outside the Pro Tour (WSL), which is reserved to a small number of surfers coming almost only from the 4/5 powerhouses of the sport (26 are the "regulars")... p.s. Igarashi is a WSL Tour member...so, Muniz's success can be described as "very prestigious"... p.p.s. next year, this same competition will be the key event to earn an Olympic spot (apart from those reserved to the WSL tour specialists)... szy123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
